A century before the events of Game of Thrones, two unlikely heroes wandered Westeros, A young, naive but courageous knight, Ser Duncan the Tall (aka Dunk) and his diminutive squire, Egg. Set in an age when the Targaryen line still holds the Iron Throne and the memory of the last dragon has not yet passed from living memory, great destinies, powerful foes and dangerous exploits all await these improbable and incomparable friends.

Trailer looks decent. We'll see how the show turns out in about three months. smile

This one is on my watch list.  Really don't know what to expect.  I hope it moves faster than House of the Dragon.
Wasn't it originally slated to premier mid/late 2025, but changed to 2026?

They're short stories so, yeah, it better unless they stitch them all together into one season.

If Game of Thrones hadn't had such a shit last few seasons and ending I might actually care about this. But like House of Dragons, I'll be ignoring this one too as I was so thoroughly turned off from this franchise in how the original series was ended I just can't care here.

Trailer makes it look like the light-hearted, funny, part of the story every franchise (imho) needs.
Kinda wish they would've stuck with the title Tales of Dunk & Egg though...sounds a lot better.

Looking forward to it smile

I was hoping this show would expand the stories of Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon.  Tie them together in some way.  Fill in some gaps.  But I am starting to get the impression that this show is its own story and makes no attempt to connect the aforementioned shows.

My hopes are waning sad

The way GoT ended was an abomination for sure.

But the persons most responsible (David Benioff & D.B. Weiss) for that have nothing to do with this show or House of Dragons.
